An Ozark, Ala., ambulance carries the boy named Ethan out of the area where a gunman has held him hostage since last Tuesday. Authorities stormed the underground bunker Monday, Feb. 4, 2013, freeing the 5-year-old boy who had been held hostage for nearly a week in the tiny underground shelter and leaving the boy's abductor dead.
